my depression and anxiety are eating away at my life and no one is taking it seriously
Hello all, I am currently a 20-year-old college student, and my depression and
anxiety
(severe
social
anxiety
) are compounding each other. I feel paralyzed by severe executive dysfunction and then my anxiety makes me panic about reaching out.

How do you really know you are adhd when soooo many things can look like it?
And also I travel with a friend that has
social
anxiety
and who likes mountains, of COURSE I will not ask her to go to bars and museums. It made me think about all the hyperactive friends who NEED to bike and run before work and after or everything turns wrong for them , it's not like that for me.

Coming off fluoxetine?
Hi, sorry long story short, my doctor started me on some fluoxetine a few weeks ago. I wasn’t depressed, it was for a headache issue.. I had a bad reaction to it, severe agitation etc and stopped it. Since I’ve stopped it I’ve noticed that I no longer get pleasure from some things, even spending time

Cutting out Social Media, No motivation
lately I’ve been wanting to just kind of cut out social media and stop going onto this social website I go on because I find it causes me a lot of
social
anxiety
. I’m always checking to see if people are replying to my messages and worrying about what I’m going to say in group chats.

Crippling Loneliness
Hey guys. As some of you know, I've gone through a pretty bad emotionally traumatizing breakup late last year. I've started medication. Gone to a few therapy sessions. Got closure with a previous ex (from 2018/19). Things are stable with my current ex. We still text pretty regularly. He knows a lot

Occasional diazepam
Last weekend I took a diazepam to combat
social
anxiety
but was amazed at the results of the relief that it brought to my nerve damage (which is not pain but loss of sensation), which lasted for up to a week .

social anxiety & depression
how to talk about things besides your own depression? what do you talk about with others when you feel stupid and worthless? I find that when people try and talk to me, they are always referencing things I dont know about or are making jokes that go over my head....

Taking 1 Brave Step at a time
Today I even managed to shop solely on my own to Llydl in rush hour with loads of people there, I suffer from
social
anxiety
so struggle with people and the hustle and bustle especially queue's and then begin to sweat and hypoventilate and when you are wearing face coverings the feeling intensifies.

Looking for some tech help to improve my life.
My wife has bad
anxiety
so
social
events tend to make her uncomfortable. I want to do things with her and the kids that make her happy but don't make her feel overwhelmed. I have done a lot of things to improve on this but still have a long way to go.

Take one step at a time! ❤️☀️☮️☯️🌸🌈🧘🏻♀️🕉🙏
Be aware of the state of your mind and be watchful of your body. Take any one aspect and start working from there. Even the most capable have not taken more than one step at time, and everyone is able to take one step at a time. However, anyone who doesn’t take a step because he thinks nothing much can

Wow, I didn't know I felt that way, now what?
I've been depressed and sad before but never like this. Not long ago I was doing ok, not great, but a good base point to start everyday off with a nice, fresh smile. Sure, I would have depressive episodes that were severe but short lasting (few hours to days max). It wasn't ideal, but I could still be

Overwhelmed w/ loneliness
I have horrible
social
anxiety
that makes me not want to talk to people. I rarely talk to my family because I’m always locking myself in my room. I don’t know what to do and all these thoughts won’t let me get to sleep. Any advice? Thanks!

Working
Does anybody with major Depression have a job? I have had major depression for over twenty years-to the point where I can't function. But, I am starting to realize much of my depression and anxiety is from regrets that I am so educated and have never worked. I need more of an income, so I need to figure
